  • Lindy and Meagan Call Out Assholes by Name
    Oct 3 2024
    If Lindy and Meagan had a podcast back in June 2023, this episode would have been soooo timely. But they didn’t. So they’re covering the most important story of that year here and now and that is…the implosion of the Titan submersible. BUT BEFORE WE DIVE INTO THAT, we’re back on our endless, increasingly appalling, and all-encompassing RFK, Jr. beat, which brings us swiftly to Segment P.U.B.E.S. Somehow, this RFK, Jr. has led us on a collision course with a cohort of assholes who bullied Lindy in 2017 for being a nice dork. Guess what, dingalings? It’s 2024 and we’re ready to take you down a peg! Being good and nice is COOL and being bad and mean is NOT cool. Grow up! Be nice to fat people and stop being a hateful Nazi fangirl (this is directed to heinous public figures, not to our angel listeners who are reading this of course)! And one important BBW update: We will no longer be posting vids to that video website because it’s too much work for too few viewers. (But if we get more resources and demand we are open to bringing it back later on!) We’re sorry!Want us to maintain our presence on other platforms? Here are four ways to keep us alive and unimploded in the tiny submersible we call life: If you like our stuff, share a post or a clippy clip of ours around why dontcha? It’s like telling a friend, but telling all of your friends at ONCE. Don’t forget to center the male experience as you share!

  • Lindy and Meagan’s Appendect-isode
    Sep 26 2024

    This week, Meagan returns from her near-death appendix betrayal! And she comes bearing many a tale from those hallowed hospital wings. Tales of: a murderous vestigial organ on the loose, sexy doctors cutting free what no longer serves, a spooky Jack Nicholson moment, and (dot dot dot) a murder mystery???


    And while Lindy awaits to hear the fate of an extremely ill Meagan, she sustains an injury from playing a video game too hard. If you’ve played Cult of the Lamb, you can probably relate.


    So they’re just two brave businesswomen healing from equally traumatic illnesses. If you’re also a brave businesswoman who is #healing, let us know what you’re doing to entertain yourself! DM us on Instagram at @textmebackpod!


    If you are Dante Basco, email us at deartextmeback@gmail.com and come be a guest on our pod! Thank you to Textmebackolyte Jacqueline (and HUSBAND) for this incredible Ottawa Comic Con reporting 🫶


    And Meagan hasn’t seen her hospital bill yet, so now is a great time to join our Patreon!!! https://www.patreon.com/TextMeBackPod


    Sincerely, thank you to all the kind words for Meagan this past week! Don’t let her being totally okay now stop you from saying nice stuff to us over at the Best Friend Party Phone at (703) 829-0003.

  • Lindy and Meagan Have the Regular Number of Organs
    Sep 19 2024

    In this week’s episode, Meagan’s appendix decides to take this “I Can Fix Her” segment to a whole new level and makes an unexpected break for it. And as a result, 50% of our hosts are in the hospital and our episode is a little shorter than usual! When the appendix decides to say *bye girl 💅* we have to respect it, but luckily we had a pre-recorded segment brought to you by Magic Mind, an elixir that helps make brain from brainestrone. We also talk about a couple other products on our radar and we do need your thoughts.


    Are you on team butter bell or team butter dish? Email us at deartextmeback@gmail.com!

    Are you on team appendix or team no-appendix? DM us on Instagram at @textmebackpod!


    Text Meagan something nice to see her through her convalescence at (703) 829-0003.
